4. OPERATION
4.1 Introduction
The indicators may be completely set up by means of a series of
parameters accessible from a menu. The availability of some parameters
depends on the current set-up of the instrument and the model. Point 4.7
describes all the configurable parameters and point 4.9 graphically
displays the route necessary to access each of the parameters.
The operation of the menus is controlled by means of 4 keys with
the following function:
: Function key. It is used to enter the menu or to pass to the
following parameter if we are already in this menu.
: It serves to increase the value of a parameter. If it is held
down, every 10 increments the speed of the increase rises. In the
case of an AK30 set up as an extensiometric reader, if it is held
down for 3 seconds from outside the menu, the value of the
current reading is taken as a Tare. When the instrument is
applying a tare, this is indicated by means of a point that flashes
on the last digit.
: It serves to decrease the value of a parameter. If it is held
down, every 10 decreases the speed of the decrease rises. In
the case of an AK30 set up as an extensiometric reader, if it is
held down for 3 seconds from outside the menu, the value of the
Tare is eliminated.
: Confirmation key. This must be pressed each time a change
made to a parameter is to be confirmed. The instrument will
flash to indicate that the parameter has been saved. All of the
parameters that depend on the modified parameter are
updated in order to be consistent. If it is held down in an AK30
set up as a pressure transducer reader or in an AK32, we enter
the automatic transducer calibration mode. At the end of this
mode, confirmation is requested of the new calibration.
